Riedel Sommeliers Riesling/Zinfandel
$140.00
Riedel Sommeliers wine glasses were praised by Robert Parker as ‘The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes’.
Riesling expresses more notes and finish on the mid-palate than at the front of the mouth; the shape of the Sommeliers bowl directs the wine to those areas.
8-7/8″ tall, with a maximum capacity of 13.4 oz. for an average serving size of just over 4 oz.
Weighs 10 oz.-just enough to optimize stability and still feel great to lift.
Recommended for: Alsace Grand Cru, Bardolino, Beaujolais Nouveau, Blauer Portugieser, Chianti Classico, Cotes de Provence, Cotes du Rhone rose, Dolcetto, Jurancon Sec, Lagrein, Marsannay rose, Montepulciano, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Orvieto Classico, Primitivo, Riesling, Riesling (Spatlese/late harvest dry), Riesling Smaragd, Sangiovese, Scheurebe, Schilcher, Smaragd, Teroldego, Vernaccia, Welschriesling, Zinfandel
Why choose this glass over similar glasses?
The most flexible glass in the line: great for Riesling, Zinfandel and Chianti enthusiasts, but ideal if you also serve Beaujolais, Dolcetto, or over 25 other varietals.
If you’re currently serving in a Bordeaux glass, as is often recommended, the narrower shape of this glass is better suited for these varietals.
Robert Parker declares, “The effect of [Riedel Sommeliers] glasses is profound. I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make.”
Each glass in the Riedel Sommeliers line is sold individually.
